Work Package

Work Package(s) define the releases and iterations (Sprints in Scrum) that are contained in the stage. The content of Work Packages will be broken down or transformed into the lower level plans such as release plans and iteration plans that can be in the form of backlogs.

The structure and use of a Work Package is the same as the original Work Packages in PRINCE2. A few things worth mentioning are:

This is also a guide from the table 10.1 of the original PRINCE2 manual (2009): The scope of a plan is defined by the set of products to be delivered. Scope tolerance (if used) should be in the form of a note on or reference to the product breakdown structure for the plan. Scope tolerance at the stage or Work Package level is of particular use if applying a time-bound iterative development method such as Agile.
